Zebrafish were the original pet-store Glofish, popular for tropical aquaria despite their Himalayan origins. In science, they have proven to be valuable models for many investigations, including for studying blood diseases, osteoporosis, leukemia, and other disorders—and soon perhaps for studying the blood-brain barrier, an obstacle for treating brain cancer. https://go.nih.gov/qhS6KTd
Great work!! 👍👍
Very interesting!
🗣️ Breaking ground in pediatric blood cancer research! This #NationalCancerResearchMonth, we’re proud to partner with Adam de Smith, PhD from Keck Medicine of USC, to uncover the roots of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children. His research focuses on identifying genetic factors and understanding how ALL starts before birth. By doing this, we aim to pinpoint children at the highest risk and create personalized prevention strategies. Learn more about his efforts 👉 https://bit.ly/3xEsuJo

My latest article for Cayman Chemical: https://lnkd.in/gGprkeTj Platelets play a critical role in maintaining hemostasis and minimizing blood loss following vascular injury. However, they also have roles in pathological conditions including cerebral thrombosis, myocardial infarction, cancer, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. In this article, we discuss the roles of thromboxanes, prostaglandins, and their receptors in the regulation of platelet activation and aggregation. #platelets #prostanoids #cardiovasculardisease #thrombosis #plateletaggregation #hemostasis
I am pleased to announce the publication of my latest research, a narrative review examining the potential therapeutic role of plumbagin in the treatment of various cancers and metabolic disorders. This will facilitate the selection of appropriate treatment options for cancer patients, as the compound is naturally occurring and has a favorable side effect profile. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Md. Imtaiyaz Hassan sir for his guidance and support in this endeavor.

‘The success rates of lung cancer treatments have increased significantly in recent years,’ says Dr. Kristof Cuppens (Sint-Trudo Ziekenhuis, Jessa Ziekenhuis). ’On the one hand, medication helps the immune system to recognise and attack tumours. On the other hand, we detect errors in the genetic material of tumours to enable more targeted treatment.’ 💬 Read the full interview with Dr. Cuppens here: https://lnkd.in/eNJSYDEU #ClearTheAirOnLungCancer #LungCancerAwarenessMonth #lungcancer #interview
While there is a greater risk for men, it is important to #KnowYourRisk when it comes to Pancreatic Cancer. Family history and genetics can significantly impact your likelihood of developing this disease, making early detection vital. 🧬 Visit our website to learn more about how these factors can aid in early detection.

We may be able to inhale #scents that delay the onset of #cancer, #inflammation, or #neurodegenerative disease in future. A new study found that in human cancer cell lines, exposure to #diacetyl, a microbial volatile compound released by yeast, prevented proliferation of #neuroblastoma.

Breast cancer is primarily influenced by factors such as genetics, age, and lifestyle choices, not by wearing a bra. It’s important to focus on proven risk factors and regular screenings rather than misconceptions. Wearing a bra does not cause breast cancer. This is a common myth, but there is no scientific evidence linking bra use, including underwire bras, to an increased risk of breast cancer. #BreastCancerAwareness #CANCERSUCKS #BetterTogether #nurturingwellnessbeyondtreatment #cancersurvivor #ZYCARE #ZydusPh
Really interesting. Along with mice, rats, fruitflies, rabbits, Zebrafish have been helping scientists for over 40 years! They are special because their babies are see-through, so scientists can watch how their bodies work. Zebrafish grow really fast, so we can study lots of them in a short time. They are very similar to humans in many ways, which makes them great for learning about things like cancer and how to make medicine work better, especially for brain problems like brain cancer.
